Is it possible to determine which path is being used between two nodes?
Does the OLSR information tell that? If so how do I read it?
Of course it world be VERY useful if we could TELL the node which path to use. I understand that is
being worked on. Thanks!

the easiest way is to use the command:
traceroute DISTANTNODE
It will show you every hop that the traffic takes to get to that node.
Example:
╰─➤ traceroute WA5EOC-UBM2-CH
traceroute to wa5eoc-ubm2-ch.local.mesh (10.44.181.237), 64 hops max, 52 byte packets
1 localnode (10.43.81.81) 0.652 ms 0.466 ms 0.467 ms
2 mid2.w2mvr-unsm2-101 (172.31.203.230) 56.667 ms 55.873 ms 56.794 ms
3 wa5eoc-ubm2-mont (10.118.212.43) 182.320 ms 70.375 ms 112.319 ms
4 wa5eoc-ubm2-eoc (10.118.210.248) 83.657 ms 110.267 ms 154.462 ms
5 wa5eoc-ubm2-ch (10.44.181.237) 401.289 ms 120.826 ms 187.664 ms
